What is a result of osmisis?
Isotnic Even pressure on both sides of the membrane Equilibrium
Through which plant cells does water move by capillary action?
Osmisis draws water from the soil into the root hair of the root of the plant. Capillary action, osmotic pressure and transpirational draw then ensure that water (and disolved nutrients) move upward through the plant.
Who was Rene dutrochet?
He discovered osmisis
Examples of osmosis?
Osmisis is the movement or diffusion of water across a semipermeable membrane
What is a result of osmisis?
Isotnic Even pressure on both sides of the membrane Equilibrium
What will happen if too much water move out of a cell?
It will Swell or shrink now, Osmisis is a speacial kind of diffusion and that it controls what comes in or out so DO NOT WORRY

Does food absorb light?
Food absorbs light, but it does NOT absorb pickle juice. The citric Acid in the pickles cause the plant to wilt, which osmisis it needed to heal like a band-aid. That is why I hate Cody. <3
What are the chemical properties of reverse osmosis?
None. Reverse osmisis is a physics problem not a chemical one. It is simply sieving water through a very very fine sieve. So fine that unless you use very high pressures the water would not go through. The sieve is so fine that large molecules, like Salt (NaCl) don't fit through.
